It took two tries for Lake Geneva to claim
the title the first time around. Lake Geneva held the record
for a year when 1,879 men, women and children, performed the
bunny hop on the shores of Lake Geneva at Library Park in
2006.
But in 2007, the record was taken away by Washington
state residents. With 1,887 bunny hoppers, the Evergreen State
Fair in Washington just barely broke Lake Geneva's record.
This time participants performed the bunny
hop twist, which consisted of people wearing bunny ears and
dancing the twist.
"There
is no record for the bunny hop twist so far," event organizer
Kathy Fraser, the owner of Rag
Thyme
, said.
The bunny hop attempt was just one of the activities
that took place in Lake Geneva's Library Park a week ago Saturday.
The
event served as an Earth Day celebration, as well as an effort
to raise money for Children's Oncology Services' One Step
at a Time Camp.
The first 200 families that registered for the
hop were given seedlings, donated by Badger FSA, in honor
of Earth Day.
Recycling services were also offered in downtown
Lake Geneva.
Children and families were entertained
with a petting zoo, which was provided by Big Foot FSA.
Many shops in downtown Lake Geneva held spring
open houses to go along with the event as well. A green bunny
scavenger hunt was involved with the open houses, where participants
were able to seek out green bunnies hidden in local stores.
The bunnies were green to help remind people of Earth Day.
"We were really happy people came out," Fraser
said. "People were very generous."
